The fastest, most accurate voice dictation for macOS. Speak naturally, get perfect text. 99+ languages, smart formatting, context-aware AI.
honestly the context-aware formatting sounds great, but i'd love a custom vocabulary feature where i can add technical terms or names it keeps messing up. basically a personal glossary that stays synced across devices. that would honestly make me use it every day
@balcicek59166 good news — that already exists :) there's a Dictionary tab in the app: add technical terms or names once and it stops mishearing them, and it's tied to your account so it syncs across devices. there are industry packs too (software, marketing, medical…) you can toggle on. try it and tell me if anything's missing from what you had in mind
Tried it for an hour of writing and the context-aware formatting actually nailed my weird mix of markdown and plain text without me correcting anything. Wild how well it picked up technical terms in English even when I was mumbling.
@kymetrayw ha, the markdown + plain text mix is one of the nastier cases, so genuinely glad it held up. if it ever mishears a technical term, there's a Dictionary tab where you can pin the correct spelling and it sticks from then on
The context-aware formatting is genuinely impressive, it actually knows when to drop in punctuation and capitalise properly without you having to dictate every mark. Feels like the team really thought through the messy middle part of dictation tools that everyone else ignores.
@ecegencogl26083 "the messy middle that everyone else ignores" is honestly a better pitch than anything on our website 😄 that gap between what you said and what you'd actually send is the whole product. if you find rough edges in there, tell me — that list is basically my roadmap
the context-aware formatting is honestly impressive, like it just knows when to add punctuation without me thinking about it. really clean execution from the team
@alpergrbzobpev thanks Alper! punctuation was the bit that took longest to get right — transcribing words is easy, guessing where your sentence was going is the hard part. glad it's invisible, that's the goal
finally a dictation tool that actually nails punctuation when i speak casually, not just when i dictate like a robot. switching between english and spanish mid-sentence worked surprisingly well too.
The context-aware AI actually feels like it understands sentence flow instead of just transcribing words, which is rare for voice tools on Mac. Clean execution.
@yusufjqnq thanks! that's basically the whole bet we made — most tools hand you a raw transcript and leave the cleanup to you. still plenty we want to improve on flow, but glad it already feels different
